If you can get that handgun out with any alacrity, I don't see a problem if that's what is comfortable. If you're just looking for an excuse to try out some new leather, have you tried Don Hume? I use JIT Slides for leather, and they're super comfortable and hold close to the body, so they're good for any weather. FWIW, the JIT stays on my belt, even if I'm not carrying; it's that small. I'm trying out a Galco Matrix for the G29, but of course, that's plastic. It also holds pretty close to the body.
